The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
E=U+K=57 J+61 J=118 J
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

This question can be answered by using conversation of energy.

K_1 + U_1 = K_2 + U_2

\frac{1}{2}mv_{0}^2 + mgh_1 = 0 + mgh_2

\frac{1}{2}(3)v_0^2 + (3)(9.8)(30) = (3)(9.8)(45)\\\frac{1}{2}(3)v_0^2 = 441\\v_0^2 = 294\\v_0 = 17.14 m/s

Explanation:

Note that we take K_2 = 0 because we are looking for the minimum initial speed for the penguin to reach the top of the second hill. Any other speed more than this will already be enough for him.

At which latitudes do currents of dry sinking air cause the dry conditions of earth's major deserts
Inessa05 [86]
Currents of dry sinking air cause the dry conditions of earth's major deserts at: <span>30° N and 30° S Latitudes

At approximately 30 degrees from the equator, the air that moved up from the equator started to descends. This air, however, could only come from one direction. So when the air is blocked by a mountain, the other side will not receive any water that it contains. This makes the other sides of the mountain became really dry which will eventually cause the formation of the desert.</span>

A lawn mower engine running for 20 m i n does 4, 5 6 0, 0 0 0 J of work. What is the power output of the engine?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:3800\ W

Explanation:

Given

Lawn mover running for t=20\ min

and does W=4560\times 10^3\ J

We know Power is rate of work i.e.

P=\frac{\text{Work}}{\text{time}}

P=\frac{4560\times 10^3}{20\times 60}

P=3800\ W

Thus Power output is 3800\ W
